I've been using this for a long time and I really like it.... BUT... I wasted hours of messing around with why it wasn't working and realized that you need a full URL string in the setting like http://www.website.com instead of just www.website.com. Developer please fix this and either give warning or automatically fix the formatting. Thanks.

Installed it, it requested the manage apps permission, so uninstalled it and installed Custom New Tab URL instead.

The only one that will properly set focus away from the address bar and into the new page! I just wish it were smaller/simpler. I don't need the extra bells and whistles, and it takes 1.5MiB when it could probably be a mere <100KiB.

The extension does what it says... but why Chrome is missing such a simple function? Why do we need to add extensions for such a small thing that should ne normal default in ANY browser! Why Chrome doest switch to the new tab by default? Shame on Chrome...seriously!

If you encounter a blank page, try reinstalling the extension and reapplying the permissions. This resolved my issue.

As it is, it seems to work well enough. But... WHY does it need and keeps nagging me, with an obtuse message to "allow management access to access all your apps!". Seems odd, in there are no "apps" I wish this extension to "manage" for me.
